Upon submission, the flow starts a gross-up QuickPay process to calculate the pay advance.

Roll Back and Retry the Anytime Pay Reversal Process

If your payroll flow runs the Calculate Payroll process during a Regular payroll cycle, such as the US Simplified Flow, it performs individual reversal actions for all advances paid during the pay period. It groups those actions into a separate flow called Pay Advance Reversal.

To roll back or retry this reversal flow, select the flow instance from View Flow. These actions aren't available from the Linked Flow section on the main flow.

You must perform Rollback and Retry from the flow and not by running a standalone process, such as Retry Payroll or Retroaction Calculation. These processes might not perform the reversal processes correctly.
